Mobile talk show
I just finished reading Lexus to 'Darkcast' mobile talk show in CT 200h [w/video]. Lexus is putting out a new advertisment for its CT200h model. With a video series?!?!? Comedian Whitney Cummings will interview a bunch of unique personalities as they drive the new hybrid hatch through their home cities, each episode will be in a new location. These interviews will not be chose at random though. Personaly i dont think this is a good means of advertisment considering people were prepicked to talk. As far as relating this to class, we are learning about the cardon cycle and how too much carbon can cause globle warming since this car is a hybrit it cuts down the amount of carbon that is released into the air.

Low Carbon
I just finished reading China's Urban Low Carbon Future in Shanghai. It was about how there was an expo in china at the China Pavilan. This expo was held to talk about lowering the carbon use in china. In reducing the carbon amount many jobs open up in "wind" or solar energy. This is an energy saving way to produce light and heat and reduce the amount of carbon. Personaly i think that the U.S should also begin to use this idea not only will it save energy but it will also open up jobs and perhaps lower the unemployment rate. This relates to class because saving energy is something we unknowning do all the time. Or dont do.. depending on who you are. And you cant forget Mr. suters whole class period talk at the begining of the year on how teenagers dont turn lights off when we leave a room! =]
This shows where the expo was held. All the lights are run by solar energy!!!!!

Neogreene laptop sleeve!!
I just finished reading GreenSmart Laptop Sleeve Eco Product Review. It talks about a new laptop cover that is totaly gone green.. Talk about relating to class, what can relate to class more than a envirnmentaly friendly laptop case.This is envirnmental after all.. This laptop case is 100% water based material with none of the toxins or chemicals found in neoprene, hince its name "Neogreene". The inside lining is made from recycled plastic bottles that have been washed and made into fiber, spun into yarn and woven into fabric. Personaly, I think this case is unreal. I cant beleive that someone could really make something like this for a laptaop that is completely gone green!!
And look, its pretty to!

Tropical Storm Nicole
I just finished reading Letter from the Aftermath of Tropical Storm Nicole. I was dumbfounded to read that half of there city was completely under water. It is hard to think about seeing the place at which you live now being distoried. Stom Nicole allowed the water level to rise just over 14 feet in 36 hours. That is rediculous! I dont know how they could possibly get rid of all that water and save there city, hopefully they find a way. Personaly, if this happened to my city, I would hope for a quick fix. Wouldent you?

illegal tree killings
I just read More Illlegal Tree Killings in Exclusive Real Estate Hot Spot, which talked about how people are killing tress just because said tree is blocking there view of the harbor? I strongly beleive this is wrong. Just becasue mother nature is "in the way" of your view, doesnt give you the right the distroy it. Those tress could have been there for thousands of years. Than we come in and distroy it just becasue you want to see a pretty view? I think not. Tress give off oxygen, they help us, and we thank them by getting rid of them? Hope you are proud of yourself. I am not a tree hugger by any means, but i do beleive people should have more respect for our natural resources. Personaly i think that if you must cut down a tree, be kind enough to plant another tree somewhere else.
Notice the lack of trees!!!!!! What happened to them? They were cut down to make this house!!!!!!!!!

warsha10 sustainable thoughts
I just recently finished reading Sustainable Thoughts by Mike Despines, a former hanover highschool student. In his blog he talks about the use of technology in everday lives of Americans. Despines states that most Americans dont allow time to do nothing, therefore not allowing the brain to retain information. My outlook on this situation is that i am in total agreeance. No matter where you are their is always somebody on their phone. Me included. Technology has seemed to take over America. Between text messageing and Email communication is at everyones finger tips. Most Anericans even have some sort of technology being used during exercises. In Despines blog he quotes a phycologest who says that a person has a better chance of retaining information if said person does "nothing" after being presented with the information. This allows the brain to rest and just retain what is needed, and not be overloaded. Again i say i am in agreeance with this statement, americans need to take a step back and just do nothing!
